US EditionVance heads to Pennsylvania to launch the White House’s first major push to sell Trump’s big bill
PENNSYLVANIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 16 – Vice President JD Vance cast the deciding Senate vote to advance President Trump’s $9 billion rescissions bill, which includes $1.2 trillion in Medicaid and food stamp cuts, amid GOP and Democratic opposition.
- Vice President JD Vance traveled to northeastern Pennsylvania on Wednesday to promote President Trump's recently signed budget-and-policy legislation.
- The legislation, known as the rescissions package, passed the Senate 51-50 with Vance casting the tie-breaking vote amid some Republican dissent.
- The law features popular measures such as removing taxes on tips and increasing the child tax credit, but it has drawn criticism for slashing $1.2 trillion from Medicaid and food assistance programs.
- Trump called the measure the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' and said, "It's been received so well I don't think I have to" travel extensively to promote it.
- Democrats plan to make the law a major midterm election issue, viewing its Medicaid and assistance cuts as harmful, while Republicans defend it as fulfilling promises and improving fiscal responsibility.
